A steam cleaner, failing that boiling water, some gloves, a cleaning product, some wire wool and a shit load of patience and elbow grease.

Last year I paid to get mine cleaned watched them do it, you should be able to take door off then unscrew it. Most of the grime you can't shift may well be between the 2 panes of glass.

Just don't try to take the door off to clean it without knowing exactly what is screwed to what. My Wife did this, the door came away where she wasn't expecting it to and fell on the floor tiles. Ended up in quite a few pieces (several thoudand, at a guess)....!

Oven Pride. It works.
Done.

Thanks for the replies, the grime is definitely on the outside of the pane but I guess that I may find more inside once I sort the outside. I think that I'll try the scraper followed by some elbow grease to remove whatever is left.

That's what I'm using inside the oven but I think that it says not to use on glass?

Lemons & elbow grease

One part vinegar, 2 parts water,juice of an orange. Spray over everything including glass. Leave as long as you can. Newspaper to wipe. Repeat until you have a new looking oven.

I paid £115 for Ovenu to turn up and spend 5 hours on it (not my oven, just never cleaned by the previous owner).

Looks brand new now and worth every penny.

Ovens have windows? 😯

The instructions on mine say unscrew the catches that hold the window, take it out and clean it in the sink with a brillo pad and hot water. It works for me about every leap year.

So the children can look out...

Steam.cleaner I did ours in about an hour works a treat.
Just when u use it if the water runs between the glass you will have to remove it anyways. But by far easiest and cheapest way to degrease

Oven pride, slap it on, rub it in, leave it a bit then rub it off.

Although reading as i write it could be instructions for something completely different 🙂

I experimented how best to clean the congealed fat off our glass cooker hood shelf. The particles of oil polymerise over time into a sort of gel. I found an acid breaks the gel up enough to clean with normal cleaners. I had some citric acid, worked. May work on oven gunge.

Thought we did this last month.

Anyway, the glass scrapers for ceramic hobs will take off 80% of the muck then finish off with the ceramic hob cleaner in orange bottle.

So same stuff and routine for the hob too.

Citrus Bike degreaser is quite effective i found out.

All you need is some off those microfibre sponges. Work a treat and no need for xtra strong chemicals

If you also have a wood-burner or multi-fuel stove, the glass cleaner for that works very well on dried fat, which it turns to soap.

Some jif and a cloth should do it!

Surely it's your wife's problem as it must have been her that made the mess?
